<dc:title>Ayr: Former Cathedral of the Good Shepherd</dc:title>
<dc:description>The building designed by WIlliam Cowie and Torry as a parish church and completed in 1957, was elevated to Cathedral status in 1961. Following its closure, redeveloped by Ayrshire Housing in 2012 to a deisgn by Gordon Fleming of Ayr-based ARPL Architects. Retaining the tower and gable of the Category C listed building, 25 new houses and flats have been erected in a form that respects the legacy of the cathedral building.&amp;nbsp;</dc:description>
